The Philosophy of our Religious Exploration: “Spirit Play”

Children meet in our Spirit Play classroom after the Time for All Ages in the main church service.

Spirit Play is a model of Religious Exploration that invites children to create their own spiritual expressions and reflect on their own understandings of faith, spirit, and story.

Drawing inspiration from the Montessori Method and play-based early childhood education our Sunday morning class centers around a child friendly worship closely aligned with the adult liturgy and theme.  Children then are invited to reflect and explore their own inner wonderings and spirit through self- chosen tasks around the classroom which include art, books, yoga, creating with blocks, a reading nook, literacy, science and math activities, and worship area.  Our Art Room is also open at this time allowing children to engage in a multitude of creative expressions.

UU Writers Club

We are offering a once monthly UU Writers Club, a chance to explore and work on different writing including short stories, poetry, fairy tales, illustrations. Working collectively or individually, this group will be a wonderful place to use creativity and imagination. Lead by congregation members who are accomplished writers who love to share their passion with youth. This will be held during our regular RE time on a rotating Sunday. Schedule can be found in the newsletter.
